Hi,

today (29.july.2008) i was again up in Retezat NP. we have done some dwarf pine (finished) planing on a eroded slope.

and off-course i have done also some collecting.

altitude around 1800m, on a pasture. size 4-5 mm.
is this Psilidae, Loxocera? something more possible?
collected several specimens.

thanks in advance,
cosmln

All seems to match Seguy's description of Loxocera fulviventris...

Hi Stephane,

in this time i have downloaded the Seguy's volume from Faune de France.
and reached the same conclusion -> Loxocera fulviventris (you are talking about the same Seguy's book?).

i appears that until now species of Loxocera have not been signaled from Romania. where i can find more about Psilidae?

thanks a lot for your help,
cosmln
